Your lips are like (A)a scarlet thread,
    and your mouth is (B)lovely.
Your (C)cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
    (D)behind your veil.
Your (E)neck is like the tower of David,
    built in (F)rows of stone;[a]
on it (G)hang a thousand shields,
    all of (H)them shields of warriors.
Your (I)two breasts are like two (J)fawns,
    twins of a gazelle,
    that (K)graze among the lilies.
